The faster you skim it, the more comprehensible it is.
 
I think most of the other 45 out of 100 could read it if they put forth a little effort...

"so 2 months ago" is just a lighthearted jab since so much stuff on the internet circulates, re-circulates, re-re-circulates, re-re-re-circulates, and re-re-re-re-circulates.

My friends and family simply respond, "ginkgo!!"

That's because 8 year olds didn't type before then and nobody had to read unintelligible garble. OTOH, I have no problem reading that, and can read upside down and in a mirror with no real extra thought.

can you take a pen in both hands and start writing the same thing in both directions? I kinda can, and its really fun to do that.

To test the theory:
Fuoorcsre and seevn yreas ago our feahtrs bugohrt fotrh
on this cnntioent a new notain, cevicnoed in lirbety and
dtceediad to the psitooiorpn that all men are ceetard eqaul.
Now we are eagengd in a geart cviil war, titnseg wehehtr
taht ntoain or any notain so cvieocend and so detdcaeid
can long eudrne. We are met on a gaert btfatleleid of that war.
We hvae come to dteicdae a pooritn of that field as a fainl
retnisg-pclae for tohse who hree gvae teihr lvies taht that
ntoain mhigt live. It is algtoetehr ftniitg and porepr that we
slhuod do this.
But in a laregr ssene, we connat ddiatcee, we canont
ctaeroncse, we canont hlolaw tihs grnoud. The bavre men,
lniivg and daed who sgelugtrd here have cceontsraed it far
above our poor pweor to add or dartect. The wolrd wlil ltlite
note nor long rmbeeemr waht we say here, but it can neevr
frgoet what tehy did hree. It is for us the linivg rhtaer to be
dtidaeced here to the uifiennshd wrok whcih they who fouhgt
here hvae thus far so nolby aevcndad. It is rthaer for us to be
hree ditdeaced to the garet task rniaeinmg brefoe us--taht
form tshee hrenood dead we tkae iscerenad dvooiten to
that cause for whcih tehy gvae the lsat full mreause of

a new birth of federom, and taht gnvmoeenrt of the peploe,
by the pploee, for the peolpe shall not piresh from the erath.

and - remember this one?

The New Clusooss.
Not like the berzan ginat of Gerek fame,
Wtih curqnnieog limbs arsdtie from land to land,
Hree at our sea-whased, sesunt-gaets shall satnd
A mgithy wmoak wtih a torch, wohs flame
Is the ipinmseord liihgnntg, and her name
Mtoehr of Eixels. Form her beoacn-hand
Glows world-wide wcolmee, her mlid eyes caommnd
The air-bdegird haborr taht twin-ciites famre.
"Keep, annceit ladns, yuor steorid pomp!" creis she,
Wtih silent lpis. "Gvie me yuor tired, your poor,
Your huedldd mseass yinnreag to bahrtee fere,
The whetrecd Rsuefe of your timeeng srhoe;
I lfit my lamp bdisee the goeldn door!"
Nemovebr 2, 1883
Emma Lazarus
(1849 - 1887)

(I wrote a Matlab script to re-arrange the text...)
 
This has been looked into before and it's basically just a somewhat cool internet hoax that didn't originate at Cambridge University.

There are plenty of paragraphs that you can rearrange and it becomes extremely difficult to interrupt. They wrote one that was easy.

That's no worse that some of the memos I've had to read at work. In fact, it's probably better. Each word actually has the right letters.
